Chris Nickson's books

The Constant Lovers published on January 26 in the UK (May 1 in the US). 

Read the review of the book from Eurocrime .

The next book in the series, Come the Fear, will be published in the UK in July.


Cold Cruel Winter has been named one of the 10 Best Mysteries of 2011 by Library Journal.

 Cold Cruel Winter is now available everywhere as an ebook, for all formats.

A rave review - starred - for Cold Cruel Winter from Publisher's Weekly, which calls it "a superb follow-up to 2010's The Broken Token" and says "Nickson, who does an excellent job depicting an honest, damaged policeman trying to seek justice at a time when influence trumps truth, may yet join the front rank of historical mystery writers." Read the review here.

Another good review for the book from Booklist, which praises the "vividly realized historical background, and the well-drawn characters and sharp dialogue." Read the review here.

Now Kirkus Reviews adds that "follow-up to Broken Token (2010) is an exciting tale that explores the vast gulf between the rich and poor while delivering a
first-rate mystery."
